I can't chrome that one because the tape I use for masking off won't stick to the wave portion of the statue and the chrome chemicals will leak and discolor it. If you want the entire thing chromed that I can do it, but most people I have talked to don't want that.

Maybe it would be easier to just chrome whole thing (minus the bottom base of course), and just have the cosmic dust repainted?
The statue is awesome (I have one), but I was never really a huge fan of the purple color of the dust anyway. Maybe someone could come up with some better that would work with the chrome?
